    The hotel is really nice, with very friendly staff, an amazing breakfast, and a fantastic location! You are right at the door of Lapa, the most lively neighborhood in Rio de Janeiro, and within walking distance of Santa Teresa, Rua do Ouvidor,...

    Very helpful staff and great location for Lapa. Streets very busy so you feel safe though there are many 'characters' making the area vibrant though some might feel a little anxious.

    Well located, despite the decline of Rio de Janeiro's downtown. There are plenty of shops nearby, providing a true city experience. Lapa is known for its bohemian vibe, but the hotel offers a bar if you don't want to risk going out at night.

    Socialtel Lapa was a blast! The Queen room? Stylish AF. The location? Wow – right in the middle of the action. If you’re coming to Rio and skip this place, you’re doing it wrong.

    This is a lovely boutique hotel ideally situated in the heart of Rio's vibrant nightlife district. The staff is very friendly and professional. I highly recommend it. The metro is very close, but it's a good idea to take a taxi when returning late...
